During an altercation, Segar reportedly choked the girlfriend. During a struggle with members of her family, he fired three shots from a handgun into the ceiling, authorities said, while her 1-year-old daughter was present.

He then fled the apartment, they said, and police didn’t find him that day. But Segar turned up in a search by Woodbury police, the Prosecutor’s Office fugitive unit, state police and the U.S. Marshal’s Service in Atlantic County.

He was arrested Feb. 28 at a Runnemede motel. Segar was committed to Gloucester County Jail in default of $25,000 bail.

He’s charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, terroristic threats, unlawful possession of a weapon, possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, possession of a weapon by a person not permitted to have one and endangering the welfare of a child.
